"content": "We want to create and establish a body under Article 240 of the Constitution which establishes the National Security Council. We will co-opt people and institutions like the Attorney-General, the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), National Treasury, National Police Service and the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) of the Republic of Kenya because they are adequately charged with security matters. In fact, the same article of the Constitution charges the President with the responsibility of presenting the state of our security address to this august House on an annual basis. You cannot ignore this common place. Today, through IT systems, we transmit… I will give you a synopsis. The entire banking sector combined transacts only Kshs2.4 trillion. It raises Kshs80 billion income a year and yet through our mobile money, it gets an income of Kshs55 billion a year against Kshs6.9 trillion in turnovers. This means that we are more on the digital front which can affect 45 million people in an instant. This is our entire banking sector which is regulated by the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK). So, any impact into this particular place is of great concern to every Member of this House. Indeed, the auditing of their systems has a far-reaching effect. That is why I will propose the establishment of a body which has a proper audit mechanism towards our critical infrastructure and think about the emerging threats like the internet of things."
